Russian and Ukrainian ladies videos

The Ukrainian community in Canada is very important as it represents about 4% of the Canadian population with 1.4 million Canadians of Ukrainian origin. It is sometimes referred to as the Ukrainian Diaspora because Canadian politics is still close to Ukraine. In other words, Ukrainians are not only present in Canada, they have their say. As proof, the visit of the Mayor of Montreal, Denis Coderre, a few minutes before the Ukrainian Fashion Show. The Ukrainian festival is a free annual event for lovers of Ukrainian culture. We went with the family and were very surprised to meet ... couples we created without knowing it!

Visit of the Mayor of Montreal to the Ukrainian Festival of Montreal

When you are a mayor in the pre-election period, it is important not to forget the ethnic communities that inhabit the greater metropolitan area of ​​Montreal. Indeed, the Ukrainian diaspora is powerful and influential in Canada. Ukrainian immigration to Canada began in 1892 with Iwan Pylypow and Wasyl Eleniak who created the Edna Star settlement. Ukrainians from the west and from the Lviv or Lviv region, which have a rural and agricultural tradition, have begun to immigrate to Western Canada and the Prairies. In western Canada, in the Winnipeg area, there are whole cities made up of Ukrainians to the point where they have created a language: Ukrainian Canadian.

In the political sphere, Ukrainian-Canadians are considered to be at the origin of Canadian socialism. Canada has always been a loyal ally of Ukraine and its people, especially during the Orange Revolution in 2004.

Fashion Show by Ukrainian designers in Canada

What a beautiful spectacle to contemplate the Ukrainian mannequins wearing the clothes of the Ukrainian designers. Vita Nikitenko, Ryabokon, Etnodim, Ulianka, brands proposed by the company: From Ukraine With Love. You will also see genuine Ukrainian costumes from the private collection of Ludmyla Datsenko.

Meetings with Canadian-Ukrainian couples created by the CQMI Agency

We were very surprised to meet on the festival of the couples that we formed, without even knowing that they were in couple. It was a bit of a bitter surprise because we normally expect to be informed about developments in a relationship. They explained that they prefer discretion and that was the reason for their silence.

Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi is located on the right bank of the Dniester in the Odessa Oblast. This city lies quite south of Ukraine right next to Moldova and at the edge of the Black Sea. There is a fortress which once belonged to the Moldovan prince Stephen the Great. You will also see beautiful pictures of this castle in the next videos since the wedding was transposed on the seashores after the orthodox ceremony.

The adventures of Serge in Ukraine

The Orthodox wedding ceremony in Ukraine

As you can see in the image, the ceremony is divided into two parts, first with the betrothal and then with the coronation.

The engagements:

The basic principle being that in the couple, each member, man or woman, taken individually are imperfect. It is the holy union that creates perfection before God. The Orthodox priest who is very well illustrated in this video with his long beard and his voice singing litanies and psalms seriously. You also hear the hearts of the Ukrainian women singing the psalms.

The coronation

The witnesses of Serge and Galina carry the crown over Galina and Serge. It is the ritual that consecrates the union of man and woman before the lord.

A bit like in the Catholic tradition, the two married drink the wine in the cup, the blood of Christ. The young couple then walks around the altar three times, symbolizing the nuptial march. Their hands are bound by a divine scarf

The CQMI, Antoine and Boryslava had the privilege and honor to participate in the wedding of Jean and Irina on June 10, 2017 in the city of Granby which is not only famous for its Zoo.

Alexandra is of Russian mother and Ukrainian father. She is 30 years old, lives in the city of Kharkov and she takes care especially of her child Gleb who is 1 year and a half. She works in the field of the sale of souvenirs from Italy. She found the agency dating CQMI after having had disappointments on a dating site not so serious. Indeed, the proposals she received were of a sexual nature. The discussion became particularly interesting when we discussed the differences of mentality between the Russians and the Ukrainians. Of Russian mother, Alexandra had many interesting things to explain about the culture and the Russian people ...

Trust in the couple: ingredient for the romantic relationship

For Alexandra, a fulfilling relationship begins with friendship that turns into love. On several occasions, she stresses the importance of mutual trust in the couple.

A foreign man rather than a Ukrainian man

As is the case for many Ukrainians living in Ukraine, their origins are Russian. Alexandra's mother is Russian, she came to Ukraine with her Russian parents when she was little.

Alexandra does not think there are any differences between Russia and Ukraine. In addition, eastern Ukraine is exactly the same as Russia. On the other hand, western Ukraine is more like Europe. And this explains why Ukraine is in conflict. In general, the Russian and Ukrainian people are very kind and caring people, Alexandra explains. This is a different story from the media!

Moreover, the Ukrainian and Russian peoples have the same orthodox religious base.

Alexandra visits Russia once a year. She has already been to Moscow, St. Petersburg and Ivanovo.

Ivanovo is the city of Russian girls to marry!

Ivanovo is a city in the north-east of Moscow, made up of 80% Russian women, due to its industrial legacy in the manufacture of clothing and clothes-laundry machines. It is the city of Russian brides. We show you beautiful images of the parade of the Russian brides of Ivanovo, in white wedding dresses.

Ruslana is a Ukrainian girl reserved and shy but of great beauty. She talks about her work and the man she would like to meet. The end of the discussion concerns the preliminary discussion by Skype. In her case, she prefers that the discussion does not go beyond a meeting by Skype because she does not feel comfortable enough in English to be able to support a complex conversation. Even though Skype Translator can solve some language barriers, she prefers the tactile communication of the encounter in Kiev.

At 29, Ruslana is rather a calm, kind and joyful girl who is rather flexible in character, that is to say, able to compromise in a couple relationship. Ruslana has a consistent life experience and she always tries to look forward to believing in a radiant future. She enrolled in the dating agency CQMI to meet a serious man who knows what the family means and who knows what he wants in his life. Ideally, he will be able to provide for the needs of his family and the children of the relationship.

Ruslana believes that differences are primarily dependent on people and not on cultural differences. For example, she likes to compare her own childhood with that of the man she meets. She tries to find out what things are interesting for both people and see what can unite them in a couple project. Traditions per se are not an obstacle even if they are different.

If you meet a man who already has children?

Sometimes Ruslana says that it would not be a problem even if she would ideally prefer to found a family in which the man and the woman would have their first children.

Ruslana explains that she has time to write and communicate even though she is currently experiencing an intense period in her work. If she feels that she is very interested in the man she meets she will be ready to put all other business aside. Indeed, the family passes first for Ruslana. In a specific case with a CQMI client, Ruslana admits to having little communication with him, with a single Skype meeting before the actual meeting.

After a little hesitation Ruslana explains that the English level of the man with whom she communicated was much more advanced than hers, which made understanding difficult for her. Therefore the role of theassistant CQMIbecomes so important.

The question is whether to make several encounters by Skype to decide whether the meeting in real will be promising or not. Indeed, some CQMI members are not very motivated by the prospect of making long periods of communication at a distance before the meeting in Kiev, especially when their level in English does not allow it.

Moreover, the encounter in real allows to feel the person at the tactile level and to look in the eyes.

Elena is a beautiful Russian woman of German mother and Russian father, a mixture that can be explosive. This video perfectly illustrates the characteristic differences between Russian women who are more direct and ambitious than Ukrainian women who are more discreet and less direct. You will understand without any difficulty the differences of behavior between Elena and the other adherents of our site like Tatiana who fled the war to the east of Ukraine. The region of Donetsk in the East is a region in which Ukrainians and Russians live together.

At 39 years, old this beautiful Russian woman without children seeks her soul mate. That's why Elena enrolled in our marriage agency. Her history is quite particular. From a Russian father, from a German mother, she left the Moscow region to come to Ukraine at the age of 5 years.

Difference in self-confidence and assertiveness between Russian and other Slavic girls

The Russian woman with German origins like Elena, is very asserted, quite explosive. When she talks about her future potential husband, she does not go dead hand. One feels that her discourse does not suffer the possible contestation. It would be interesting to discuss about possible compromise with this charming lady.

If you compare with the speech of Tatiana who comes from Donetsk, you remember her sweetness and her kindness. Tatiana who fled the war in eastern Ukraine.

In the eastern region of Ukraine, you will find a population that is composed for a large half of Russian from Russia. They are Russian and work in Ukraine. This is the case of the deceased father of Elena who went to work in Donetsk. In this region, you will find Russian women and Ukrainian women living together.

Russian women are more impulsive than Ukrainian women

Russia is a strong, powerful country. It is a country that radiates over all the nations that surround it, even over China. The Russian inhabitants thus have a more arrogant attitude than the residents of neighboring countries. Lithuanian, Kazakh, Ukrainian women are more erased. One could say, more discreet.

Europe is closer than Canada to Elena

In her interview, Elena also emphasizes a theme we have already discussed. For a Ukrainian woman, it is a more serious step to go to Canada than to live in France or Europe.

Canada and Russia are two countries that are similar

Surprisingly and it is possible that some of you are shocked, Elena finally explains that Canada and Russia are two countries with similarities, such as climate, immense nature and mentality. It is also like Russia a country in which there is a mixture of cultures and nationalities.
